Editing

I offer professionalism, skill, and great communication with my clients. Each job is unique, as is each author, which is why I always begin by trying to understand your particular needs. Some clients just need someone to correct basic grammatical, mechanical, and punctuation errors. Others request help with sentence style and document formatting. Some desire a second pair of eyes to evaluate the writing and offer feedback. Some clients are really looking for instruction or coaching in writing.

I provide all of the above in a friendly, responsive, personalized, and efficient way that I tailor to my clients' needs. I'm comfortable and experienced working with essays, creative writing, letters, applications, technical writing, and web content. Whether you need substantive (developmental) editing, line-editing, copy-editing, or proofreading, I can help make your writing project stand out.
